I'm with you about Adam Savage. His philosophies about many aspects of life just resonate a lot with me and he is always so passionate about the things he's discussing or working on.
His view on organization being a continuous process finally clicked with me and got me to start putting my workshop in order.
I wonder if that will hold up in court for existing customers affected prior to the updated TOS.
Not a Lemmy issue. Click bait unfortunately works to drive views through all social media platforms.
The thing I love is being able to click into the comments first to see the auto-generated summary. Prevents the site from getting my traffic.
Fuck yeah, I'd be down for a QuietAfternoon2000. Hell, do they make one for adults? I'm ready for a good nap.
Glad I'm not the only one. Dude has a way with words!
Agreed! He plays the stoic sociopath really well, which is what I always seem to see him playing - Breaking Bad, Fargo Season 2 (less a sociopath here, but made very questionable choices), Black Mirror.
Yeah, that's Jesse Plemons. He's married to Kirsten Dunst of all things. I just finished watching season 2 of Fargo with him and Dunst - both were amazing in it.
I always think of him as "Walmart Matt Damon".
EDIT: Fixed his last name
IRL ad blocker would be something I'd wear a Google Glass-type device for. It does feel a little like an episode of black mirror though, filtering things from life.
Companies are still trying to figure out how to make VR/AR mainstream beyond entertainment and niche use. They desperately want it to be the next cell phone, but we had good reason to want to carry around access to virtually all information and it was in a good form factor.
I agree with you - Google Glass had the right idea for the form factor. The problem is it's a solution looking for a problem to solve.
I question if you're American. No American I've ever met says "USA". It's always "US" or "Americans". USA is only said as a chant of pride.
My key take away from the article beyond the headline:
"Two sources said that the Department of Energy assessed in the intelligence report that it had “low confidence” the Covid-19 virus accidentally escaped from a labe in Wuhan.
Intelligence agencies can make assessments with either low, medium or high confidence. A low confidence assessment generally means that the information obtained is not reliable enough or is too fragmented to make a more definitive analytic judgment or that there is not enough information available to draw a more robust conclusion."
